Compact counterexamples to bi-Lipschitz dimension reduction
Every infinite-dimensional real Banach space contains a compact doubling set that admits no bi-Lipschitz embedding into any finite-dimensional normed space. The doubling constant is universal. This answers the Lang–Plaut problem negatively, even for compact subsets of Hilbert space.
